Stop buying Toyotas until they stop this nonsense. Toyota is intentionally trying to discourage their buyers from changing their own oil to save money.
Ever heard of a drip tray?
They did it for environmental concerns. You send a whole lot less oil and metal to the trash by just replacing the filter. Not ideal but it’s for Nobel reasons
Correct tools in the correct hands, no problem at all. The spin on is easier but that filter is a much better filter for your engine.
Baxter makes a metal screw-on adapter that utilizes standard screw-on filters.
Personally i would torch out a hole in the skidplate big enough to remove the filter without ever removing the skidplate again for an oil change.
Work smarter- not harder!
You're welcome.
Just purchased my first Tundra (2021) will be my last. Can't stand when corporations deliberately screw their customers. Navigation system is a joke as well, have to call a third world country to get directions. And only get one year before you have to start paying for service.
LOL.. this looks like a Chinese a pool filter. Looks like Toyota just start made in China project >(
That paper element is messy but a lot less waste on the landfill. Those rubber o-rings would last at least three oil changes. Finally save some microwave frozen food trays to put stuff in, instead of on the dirt.
This is why I take it in to let the dealer do it, the last thing I could do myself on a car and now I can't.
A couple of ramps would do you wonders.
BMW and Benz have there filters up top because they suck the oil out they don’t drain them.
still only takes like 20 min
I did a fast research… looks like the car was designed in USA meanwhile the other that you showed were designed in Japan :O
